[SOLVED] Xlib extension GLX missing on display ":0.0" when running SDL with OpenGL

Riposte · 07-11-2016, 01:44 PM

I'm trying to run a program I made which uses SDL and I am getting an error at the start. Full output:

Code:

Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
thread '<main>' panicked at 'Failed to create window: SDL error: GLX is not supported', src/main.rs:32
note: Run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` for a backtrace.
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
error: Process didn't exit successfully: `target/debug/chip8_emulator` (exit code: 101)

I think when I set up Linux a couple months ago I may have made a bit of a mess with my drivers, but I'm not sure and don't know where to go from here.
Some details about my system:

OS: Debian Jessie, 64-bit
CPU: Intel Core i7
Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GT

Output from my Xorg.0.log if that helps: http://pastebin.com/Uip9XkcX

Any help would be appreciated. (sorry if this is the wrong forum, this is my first post here and I wasn't sure where this problem best fit)

I installed mesa-utils as was suggested in another thread I found to run glxinfo and that continued to give me the same error. After that I ran nvidia-uninstall and removed my xorg.conf and that has stopped the error I was getting before at least so I'll mark this as solved.
